   The problem appears to be that if a new users selects to change their   
   default editor, it's using the old default to send a message to the   
   sysop. It's still using FSEditor.   
      
   Once you get into the BBS and then send a message, then you get the   
   internal editor. Seems like a bug to me in that the login process isn't   
   re-reading the editor if it's changed. I would file a git bug report.
